People Came from 35 Nations. Yours truly was the ONLY Black man there! What a privilege. After my presentation, the plight of the Persecuted People of Sahelian Africa was added to the Resolutions. Suddenly, Nigeria and the Lake Chad Region became the Topic of Discussion for the whole evening. Asians passionately said: “we must do something!” I felt sooooo HUMBLED at the reception of my stammering effort. They CHANGED the program to include Nigeria in the General discussion and requested I stand up to move a motion demanding action on behalf of the Persecuted Church of the Sahel – Nigeria, Chad, Niger, Mali, Sudan, Burkina… I did nearly weeping as I was sooo privileged!
